For nearly 20 years, thousands of patients in the Twin Cities metropolitan area have trusted Dr. Carlson with their eyes. He is a Mayo Clinic trained and board-certified ophthamologist. Dr. Carlson was among the first to work in laser vision correction, having begun before the opening of today’s mega-surgery centers. He is one of the most highly-experienced vision correction specialists in the region. Thousands of pairs of Minnesota eyes see better today because of his work.

Dr. Mark Lobanoff has performed thousands of LASIK surgeries and is certified to use the new Zyoptix wavefront technology for custom LASIK. In addition to being board certified by the American Academy of Ophthalmology, Dr. Lobanoff completed a year-long Cornea/LASIK surgical fellowship at the University of Minnesota. Few LASIK surgeons can match this level of training. Dr. Lobanoff is certified to perform LASIK with the Bausch and Lomb Technolas, VISX, and Nidek laser systems.

Dr. Lobanoff operates at the brand new North Suburban LASIK Center in Blaine MN which opened in May of 2011. At the center we have the very latest laser technology from Bausch and Lomb, a world-wide leader in refractive surgery. Only a handful of LASIK centers in the United States have the advanced Bauch and Lomb Technolas laser.

We also are the only LASIK center in the Minneapolis and St. Paul metro region that uses the newest ACE eye tracker during LASIK. ACE stands for Advanced Control Eye Tracking. Most LASIK eye trackers track for eye movement every 1/10th of a second. ACE can track every 1/1000th of a second. ACE can track rotational eye movement during the actual LASIK treatment and move your treatment with it . . . no other tracker can do this. This is especially helpful in accurately treating astigmatism with LASIK.
